The urates look just fine. Plus I did catch the female lapping away at some water droplets at last nights misting. It seems all is well and these little guys are settling in just fine :) I scrapped the plan to completely viv out the exoterra they are in. They seem content with the two ficus in...

Hrm, I guess it was just the ones I came across. My veiled I had, years before I kept the xanths, was a big baby. Don't get me wrong, he did a lot of huffing, puffing and bluffing when I was trying to get him out for the occasional handling/cleaning his enclosure, but once he was out he was...

Still no observed drinking from these guys. I've misted the enclosure a few more times lightly. But as soon as I drop in a cricket or two, they each snap them up.

Yeah if the species I had back home were Xantholopus, from the pics they just look like stockier then most of the Xantholopus I see, they were nasty as hell. I figure it was due to them being wild caughts. Every time I would walk close to them they would flatten out and hiss. Unless food was...

The reason I was trying to sty away from the Xantholophus is that the ones I use to have were veeerrryyy aggressive, granted they were caught like a block or so where I lived. But I guess if I can get some that were bred in warmer climates/a warmer reptile breeder room it won't be as bad? I...

Oops I should have specified, I was looking at the j. jacksonii specifically. I know there are some other small sub species of Jackson's, but the j. jacksonii seem to be a little easier to come by. As for the respitory issues, I figured that would be the case. When I was still living in Hawaii...

Good to know. The one that seems to be in consensus to be female always is patternless. She does get a little darker when she see's food, but aside from that she looks like the pic. As for the other one, he started to show patterns this morning when I turned the lights on. I noticed last night...

I've been looking at Jackson's for years, but never could find a trio that I liked. The time I did, I didn't have the time or the enclosure setup to get them. Now that the time dilemma has gotten figured out I'm trying to get my questions answered so that once/if I find a trio of Jackson's I can...

As promised photos! The first pic is what I think is the female, and the second being the assumed male. Thoughts? Got caught up assembling the new light fixture for them or I would have posted the pics sooner.

Hrm, I just fed them and they are sitting on the same branch pecking off crickets.They seem content right now as they do notice each other but they don't seem to care now. Prior to pictures here is a description of each. Cham 1: smooth body has one beard barb lighter brown complexion...

I'll get some up tonight. Side note: Would it be safe for the chams if I put some carnivorous plants in to accent the flora? Plus they would help take care of the odd cricket that they don't eat :P

So I picked up what I hope turns out to be a pair of brevicaudatus. I plan on adding to them once I get these two down pat on the husbandry and conditions. At the moment I have them in a bare bottom 12x12x18 Exo Terra with a Ficus Benjamins for them to crawl over. I plan to make the terrarium...
